IWC is an abbreviation of International Watch Company, and as you can see from the English company name, it is a watch maker founded in 1868 by American Florentine Ariosto Jones.

A company created to combine the excellent craftsmanship of Switzerland with the modern engineering of the United States in the city of Schaffhausen on the German border.

Even the same Swiss watchmaker has a different philosophy from French-speaking companies such as Geneva and Vallée de Joux, which is also expressed in watches.

This Ref.810A is a round watch in the latter half of the 1960s, and is one of the vintage watches collectively called "Old Inter".

The case is made of stainless steel and the size is 34 mm, which is a little small.
The crown has a fish (coelacanth) mark, which is also a proof of a waterproof watch.

The dial is a matte white dial, but it has changed to ivory over time.

It is a good point that it has an exquisite color, yet no major deterioration or corrosion is seen.

The index is a bar index with 4 thickened points, and the needle is a pencil hand with tritium luminescent paint applied to each.

The movement is one of the Pellaton type self-winding movements, which is also called the world's highest peak, and is equipped with Cal.854 of non-date specifications.

Albert Pellaton, who became IWC's director of design in 1944, created a number of movements based on the idea of ​​practicality and robustness, rationalization of design and productivity. ..

It is no exaggeration to say that he was the one who laid the foundation for today's IWC image, "simple and strong."

The parts are very well made, and about 40,000 parts were manufactured from 1964 to 1974, so there is no need to worry about getting parts, so you can use it for a long time.

IWC genuine bracelet made by Gay Flair is attached.

Gay-Frères is the first Rolex bracelet supplier and is known as the manufacturer of Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak and Zenith's El Primero bracelets.

Vintage gay flare breaths are rare, so this alone is worth it.

Currently, it is adjusted to 16.5 cm, but it can be used up to 18.5 cm because it comes with extra frames. (Because the top is a winding type, it will take some time to adjust.)

The watch itself is light and the bracelet is comfortable to wear, so it is a very easy-to-use one.
